“CBD oil derived from hemp doesn’t get you high,” Michigan state Rep. Steve Johnson, who sponsored a bill to protect the use of CBD oil in Michigan, told the television station. “It contains no more than 0.3 percent (THC). But the Michigan Department of Licensing and Regulatory Affairs decided last summer to start classifying it the same way they do marijuana, which contains 5 to 35 percent THC.”

The legislation clarified that CBD oil and other products derived from hemp are defined as industrial hemp, rather than marijuana, WXYZ reported.
